 Sportsmedicine

SportsMedGibsonThe Sports Medicine Fellowship is a one-year ACGME accredited program designed to train individuals in the management of problems experienced by athletes and those who exercise.

The curriculum includes devoted time in the Sports Medicine Center, the Family Health Center and management of Division I NCAA athletes in the training room as well as on the sidelines. The fellows also work directly with athletic trainers and coaches in providing on-going care of high school athletes and on-site presence for practice and competitive sporting events.

The fellows undergo a longitudinal experience in the offices of private orthopedic surgeons, rotations with physical therapy and podiatry as well as an initial experience in cadaver dissection at the Medical School anatomy laboratory.

Weekly educational didactic seminars focus on research concepts, sports medicine conditions and specific problems not commonly encountered in a one-year fellowship program. A monthly journal club reviews recent articles that emphasize research methodology and timely clinical relevance. A regular radiology conference highlights educational musculoskeletal cases. Additional experiences can be arranged with approval.

All fellows are expected to present sports medicine lectures for resident education and attend a national sports medicine meeting. Each fellow is encouraged to present posters, publish academic manuscripts and participate in original clinical research.

Selection    Two Sports Medicine fellows per year are accepted. You should apply to the Sports Medicine fellowship through ERAS #1272813107. We require a permanent Missouri medical license and board eligibility in Family Medicine or Internal Medicine. Please include a CV, 3 letters of recommendation, your USMLE board score, a copy of your medical school diploma and MO license along with a personal statement of interest. Please contact Joy Hobick with any questions about required application materials.
